COVID Donate
Donating and Volunteering
We can all safely help our communities in response to COVID-19.
There are lots of ways to donate, and if you are healthy there are plenty of opportunities to volunteer your time. We have developed these webpages to support our communities while many of us are faced with new realities including sheltering in place, working from home, caring and educating children and youth from home, and many other new and unique challenges.
Additional resources are being curated and these webpages will be updated often. If you have questions about the content on this page or suggestions for additional content that would be useful please contact the CAN team.

AB 1685
Increases Before School Daily Rate and Expands Range of Providers
On June 28, 2007 Governor Schwarzenegger signed AB 1685 into law. The bill amended last year’s after-school bill SB638 by allowing current before school grant awards to be increased commensurate with the daily rate increases previously authorized by SB638 for ASES (After School and Education and Safety) funded programs. The bill also expands the range of providers that can report on program outcomes for ASES grantees by changing the word “after school teacher” to “after school staff.”
